Deadline reported on a career retrospective Paltrow did in front of a crowd at the Red Sea Film Festival. During the talk, the actress explained that the first film was largely improvised by the cast — something that she said became less prominent in Marvel movies.
“The first film we did was very different from the rest because the studio didn’t think it was going to be a big hit,” Paltrow stated. “They hired Jon Favreau to direct who was great. And they hired Robert Downey Jr., who was unhireable at the time. His career was at a very low point.
